VERY RARE HOPKINS & ALLEN "XL NO.8" ARMY REVOLVER, .44 RIMFIRE
|
|
|
Description :
|
This is an original "XL No.8" Army Revolver manufactured by Hopkins and Allen in Norwich, Connecticut and chambered for the .44 Rimfire Cartridge. These were produced in the late 1870's and early 1880's with only a few hundred produced. This revolver is in excellent condition with more than 95% of its factory nickel finish remaining. There is a little discoloration of the grip straps and some finish loss on the lanyard loop. The trigger guard and hammer retain nearly all of their case color. The gun has excellent mechanics. The ejector rod release is sensitive and releases the rod easily. The bore and chambers are very fine. The checkered hard rubber grips are in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. The "XL No.8" Army Revolver is a very rare gun and this is an outstanding example. Stock no. 27177
